about damn time! lmao feels good though. Tables seem to be slowly turning in our favor once again. Way to show up Ronaldo! Where was Messi?! I was laughing that Khedira actually showed up. See! He's good once and a great while! lol Today is a great Saturday!!

@ares90. I'm south american... Besides whats the problem with people from other parts of the world cheering on european teams. Last I checked the best players in the world come outside of europe.

Just look at history South america is where the best players are made. (not saying messi is better than ronaldo or vice versa but the majority of quality players can be found in south america and around the world).

Therefore, keep your offensive thoughts off this board. Back to n4g savage fanboy.

Why don't we call it what it was, Real Madrid put pressure and barca were sloopy. Can some one give me the possession statistic, I felt that the match was fairly even, and when alexis came back, I saw barca get some air in their sails...

That was prior to the CR7 GOAL XD!

At least try to win the copa del rey, it would be a sad way for the "great" Barcelona to not get something by the end of the season.

I am calling it what it is, I said congrats to Madrid for winning the league, this is a league game right? As for possession..umm no..Barca had more possession, Real was defending a lot more after that first goal.

I appreciate your concern for the tournament we knocked you out of...:).

Come on man. Be happy with the win but don't be a douche about it. Barca held possession almost all game like they always do. But we finished better today. Puyol is slowing which allowed Khedira. And Ronaldo was on point with his 2nd goal. I was wondering why Pique and Fabregras weren't in. That kid you had on the left just was not on the same level. Glad we can make Barca drop points while we pick them up.

Edit: more bubbles please. hate not being able to discuss games without running out. don't wanna have to go to a forum.

Yezz its right, possession was 69%-31% for barca, the game was not balanced in possession, the match was not even, barca played sloppy and messi did not appear. however, madrid was opportunist and defended all the time with 10 men in their half. idk if you watched the same game as me but i could see a madrid side outrageously burning time the whole game, when they got the ball they just smashed it back to the other side until barca moved it up again and this was happening from the minute 20 to the end of the game.

You can hardly call that a victory, a tie would have represented more what happened in a game that barca was a lot less than what it normally is. football-wise barcelona was still superior than madrid. You cannot call that victory just yet, in summary we are still teaching madrid how to play football, even after 4 years of complete dominance and an outrageous amount of money spent by madrid for their 'greatest player' and the 'special one'

@sdtarm. What are you talking about? Both teams had 14 shots, real madrid had 6 on target, barca 4. madrid had 7 corners, barca 5. Victor had to make 5 saves, casslias made 2 saves. So tell me who deserves to win again. Barca was only keeping the ball, but real madrid was making the real progress. The ball stats was the same last Wednesday but barca still lost.

Real has become a team that destroys the beauty of football. They only plays defense tonight, but I admit they used their conter attacks quite good. Still I think they should try to play football, considered their pretty amazing squad. S

and who says that barcelona are the beauty of football i bore of their possession. football is not about possession its about goals and not conceding that is what you win games doing. the trully great teams can win games where they have 1 shot and hardly any possession.

Finally a clasico that has nothing to do with controversial decisions by the referre! Isn't that ironic that when the referee gets it right, Madrid wins? I don't think it is a coincidence...Great goal by Ronaldo!

Real Madrid has nobody to blame but themselves for their past losses. Blaming it on refs is pure excuses, Barca had outplayed RM in 90% of games except the last game they played in Copa del rey, this game, and the Copa del rey final they won. Support this improved Real Madrid, instead of still feeding excuses.

Who said I was talking about referee decisions for barcelona? You just exposed yourself here, mate.I said controversial decisions by the referee,period.Haha, if you feel attacked like that after my comment, maybe it is because you know that barcelona often get lucky, and not only in clasico matches.And supporting this improved Real Madrid is exactly what I am doing ;)

I think you need to understand what you wrote, you said that when the referee gets it right, madrid wins. You're implying that refs sway towards Barca. Shame you're still making excuses even after Madrid FINALLY wins a game against barca, lol.

@RGB, what you just did proves nothing except refs make mistakes sometimes, you act as if Barca gets calls in their favor for every game, when in fact, we just never hear of calls against Barca. Why don't you take a look at all the horrendous plays your team has made for once...don't even want to go there.

Man,calm down, I was only happy to see such an important match in an important competition not decided by controversial referee decisions, which,like it or not,DID decide the outcome of some big matches(not just in clasicos).I' m not making excuses for past games like you seem to believe:why would I do that when Madrid won today?:)
